A Cowardly Foreign Policy.

If English. French or German capitalists in
vested tens of millions of dollars in the con-
struction of railway in China. and then were
deprived of the profits which would naturally
come in to them, by interference on the part of
the government at Pekin, an appeal made hy
them to their government would not be likely
to pass unheeded. and the Chinese imperial
authorities would be informed that this mimi
cal action on their part was considered in the
light of an international atfront. But an Ameri-
can investor who made an appeal to the State
department at Washington to protect him
against such imposition would be laughed at,
and would be told that his Transatlantic in
vestment was made at his own risk Boston

This is true, and ii is no credit to this country
that it is true. The stars and stripes should
protect the American citizen in every cline and
land wherein he may be, AS does the flag of Great
Britain the subjects OF that country; and this
policy would have been adopted and enforced
had the Republican party succeeded at the last
Presidential election. Now the American citi-
zen abroad has no rights which even the most
petty foreign power feels bound to respect,
and he may be injured in person or property. OF
